*Prerequisite: Ruler Work 101
Now that you’ve mastered straight lines, you’re ready to conquer curves. You will learn to stitch continuous curves. This design has many applications which we will explore during class. We will continue using the Handi Quilter Versa Tool (the same one we used for straight-line stitching). You may also bring other quilting rulers with curves if you have them.
Please arrive at least 15 minutes before class to set up your machine.
